Build a race car for £999.00 challenge

Thought I should put a post up about this, we are entering the PPC build a race car for £999.00 challenge next year, our car will be a Justy naturally

Team Hayling
Me, Garndi, MattG & Jimbo.

The car bought for £150.00 with a knackered engine


The engine we will use, its G13B with high mileage, we will give this a good going over


Started to make a manifold


Plan to use a TD04 Turbo, Garndi Turbo chip & NOS, the car must cost less than £999.00 to build so this will really be done on a tight budget.

Ppc's great I went a year ago and loved every minuit. It will be good to see the justy kick arse

i like the wheels on the car

good luck

Just up the road from my house apparently. He even called me to rub it in on the way back home .

He must be using his team of office staff to sit on ebay all day waiting for them to pop up lol.

LOL, as you know Andy I have bought a few for less than £200.00 now, I only ever buy them for the gearbox & how much is a gearbox worth

how much stronger are they than standard and are the ratios the same?

Much stronger than the standard GTI one & I believe the ratios are roughly the same

I got mine for £65 I cant imagine paying £150 you must be a fool.

when you change to a justy box do you have to change the flywheel and clutch to justy aswell?

Yes, Justy flywheel, clutch & I would think steering rack, which would involve moving the mounting points & you would need to blank off the rear output. Not a 10 minute job

nah that sounds like a hell of a job
